Regeneration

I came across ambitious regeneration plans for the larger and most notable Italian colonie buildings. Further research and reference to press stories revealed that almost all these plans had failed, either very early on or part way through rebuilding. Colonia Novarese and Stella Maris are two cases in which renovation ceased partway through due to funds running out or to questions raised as to the purpose of the completed project. The following images show architect’s visualisations and dreams that never materialised.
